Catalytic Activity2 Phosphatidylglycerol = diphosphatidylglycerol + glycerol.
FunctionCatalyzes the reversible phosphatidyl group transfer from one phosphatidylglycerol molecule to another to form cardiolipin (CL) (diphosphatidylglycerol) and glycerol. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16547353, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16678169}.
SimilarityBelongs to the CDP-alcohol phosphatidyltransferase class-I family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationMitochondrion inner membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16547353}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16547353}.
Tissue SpecificityHighly expressed in tissues such as heart, skeletal muscle and liver. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16547353}.
